Activities
Turtle Art Hotkeys
- Alt + p = palette;
- Alt + b = blocks;
- Alt + r = run;
- Alt + w = walk;
- Alt + s = stop;
- Alt + e = erase the screen.
Terminal Hotkeys
The Terminal activity must pass all Ctrl keys to the shell, so all the Sugar hotkeys starting with Ctrl must also have Shift pressed:
- Ctrl + Shift + c = copy to clipboard
- Ctrl + Shift + v = paste from clipboard
- Ctrl + Shift + q = quit activity
Emulator Hotkeys
- Alt + Shift + q to quit Sugar, for use in sugar-build, or if the environment variable SUGAR_DEVELOPER is defined,
Some of the Sugar hotkeys may not work in an emulator.
The undiscoverables
- Hidden Features: The Undiscoverable
Keys that don't work but should
- Esc doesn't appear to do anything at the activity level ... if Sugar is to help kids learn about computers then they should know that escape, outside of Sugar, does a lot of stop-gap good. Is there no 'Esc' on OLPC machines?
- Try using the Ctrl + Esc combination. --Dennis Daniels 15:15, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
